I don't like it, and neither do I like attempts by those from other regions to control our education.
What's this I hear? The old "we have the right to demean and dehumanize certain groups of people because muh regional rights" defense? I thought we'd been over this.
If you feel that strongly about what is taught in our schools you should move here and join the PTA.
Am I not allowed to condemn attacks on the humanity of LGBT students because of where I live? Am I not allowed to stand with my brothers and sisters in opposition to this hateful bill because I am not affected by it?
If you oppose this bill, why do you not welcome us non-Mideasterners to your side?
We already have enough Federal control over our schools, and over every other issue. There's hardly any room for the regions to do anything. Maybe that is why this seems to be the only piece of legislation at the regional level that has generated any kind of interest in a long time. And so we have people coming from the outside resorting to Federal court cases and heavy-handed federal curriculum laws against something that is in fact incredibly easy for those of us in the region who oppose it to take care of ourselves.
